  The directions in /usr/share/doc/pppoe/README.Debian.gz worked for me.

  In addition, I added the following to /etc/network/interfaces:

    auto eth0
    iface eth0 inet ppp
	    provider dsl-provider

  This uses the more standard "ifup" and "ifdown" programs to bring the
  connection up and down (rather than using /etc/ppp/ppp_on_boot). The
  "auto" declaration brings up the connection automatically at boottime.
